Pros
- Not to mention the amazing bottles of well-aged bourbon I secured. They will last me decades, I’m sure, because this release is the kind of whiskey I’ll only share with the closest of friends and family

Cons
- Yeah I feel like a bum for not liking it. I lucked into a bottle and… it’s not that good sorry. Too hot. Too oaked.
- Parent context: Lucked into getting this bottle. Good review. Reply: I’ll go ahead and try to make you feel better then. I didn’t like it at all. Over oaked and drank way way too hot.
